Vincent D’Onofrio Returning for Daredevil Season 3

Daredevil – Vincent D’Onofrio

Today Marvel confirmed that Vincent D’Onofrio will be returning to his role of Wilson Fisk aka the Kingpin for Season 3 of Daredevil. Kingpin was a major character during the first season of the show, but had a minor role when the second season aired.

When Jeph Loeb, the head of Marvel Television, was asked about the return of Kingpin, he responded:

Vincent is an exceptional actor who returns with the incredible gravitas he brings to Fisk.

D’Onofrio will be returning with Charlie Cox (Matt Murdock/ Daredevil), Deborah Ann Woll (Karen Page), and Elden Henson (Foggy Nelson). Production on Season 3 should be beginning this year and will premiere sometime next year on Netflix.

Season 3 will be taken over by new showrunner Erik Oleson. This isn’t his first time tackling the comic book genre. Oleson has written a number of episodes on The CW’s Arrow series. This will be the third showrunner to tackle the series as Oleson is replacing Douglas Petrie and Marco Ramirez.
